Maybe it's the same whining every year as you put it, but I see you offer no solution to the problem of 5 and 6 empty teams in some of these leagues. If you have a better idea, we'd love to hear it. I doubt there would be such a drop out rate with more teams being competive. I see the drop out rate becoming a bigger problem every year. And maybe starting these leagues all over again as someone suggested earlier isn't such a bad idea. Get rid of a few leagues, put all the players in a draft and start with full leagues. The great managers should have no problem building a winning team again.
